Luvsbway Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Viv looks fantastic. Wonder if they did a bufferin commercial as well as Lucy pill commercial on Password. "I take the tablets." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodMcK1 Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Like most of the New York era of Carson's "Tonight Show" run, I think most of Paar's era was recorded over. Most of those available clips and shows of Paar's are from his later prime-time series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a great moment. Who said she wasn't funny as herself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 That was a great moment. Who said she wasn't funny as herself? I know really. She could have some great quips and comebacks. I bet it all depended on her mood. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 I don't know that any 1957--1962 Paar tonight shows exist. It turns my stomach to think that all that great stuff is "Gone with the Wind". When Johnny took over in 1962, Paar took the same basic format to prime time, once a week Friday at 10...and that ran 3 years. And yes, those are the clips we've seen. I've heard the audio of a show done between Christmas and New Years of 1960 with Hugh Downs subbing for Paar. Lucy is in full "Wildcat" make up because she's going from the show to the theater. Hugh notes how wonderful she looks on the COLOR monitor.....and we'll never get to see it. Lucy not having any sense of humor is something that has gained momentum towards fact. It's a "fun fact" like saying Fred Astaire off-stage was clumsy and had 2 left feet. She was indeed funny, but wasn't a comic per se--she didn't have an "act". People expected fun-loving slightly ditsy Lucy Ricardo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Then we have Marcella in the Home Movies saying she wasn't whitty. I think she was. And yes she wasn't like Bob Hope cracking jokes all the time. Damn he gets annoying to listen to on talk shows with that but Lucy laughed her ass off at him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeySanJoaquin Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 So great to see them laughing together in these (well, except for the one in which Viv looks...well, like she needed a few of those tablets!!)!! Makes me wonder if there was any inkling yet at this point that Lucy would be returning to television and if so, if she'd started "working on" Viv joining her?? Probably too early but interesting to wonder about.... Jeez they not only made great history but had it as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
